Community Currency

Meer over het boek

The book explores a novel approach to institutional design, emphasizing the role of community currencies as adaptive solutions to economic challenges like financial instability and community decline due to globalization. It argues that diverse monetary institutions can coexist and thrive, offering a realistic alternative to conventional national financial systems. By framing community currencies as platforms that embody both economic and social values, the text highlights their potential to reshape market dynamics and foster noncapitalistic economic practices through an evolutionist institutional design perspective.
